Ridley Scott to start working on 'Prometheus' sequel
The 'Alien' prequel proved to be a big hit upon its release earlier this summer and studio executives at 20th Century Fox are now pressing ahead with plans for a follow up, reported Hollywood Reporter.
Scott, 74, will return to direct, while Fassbender and Rapace have already signed up to reprise their roles.
"Ridley is incredibly excited about the movie, but we have to get it right. We can't rush it," said studio head Emma Watts.
